Dasaki Pillar of the Community United States 500 Posts	Posted 09/29/2013 04:29 am Looking at a large car repair bill and will likely be forced to spend a very large chunk of my pre-95 bills on it, most of them I'm sorta okay with spending, but I'm hoping that others won't have to go... $1080 face in series 1974-1995 bills, a large number of the $10s are crisp 74 and 77 series.

sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21786 Posts	Posted 09/29/2013 07:51 am All is not lost; perhaps you could start a collection of car repair invoices! I know all about that! I have a 30 year old classic Mercedes car, and I have collected and recorded every invoice to the money I have spent on that car over the last 13 years, in a scrapbook that is now 1 1/2 inches thick! My CCF forum name alludes to the number plate on my car. I will leave you to guess what model of Mercedes that it is. Report this Post to the Staff
kanga Pillar of the Community United States 5825 Posts	Posted 09/29/2013 12:29 pm With a few exceptions I don't think FRN's merit collecting IF you are thinking about them growing in value. Exceptions: -- star notes -- error notes -- $1 notes Let me explain that last exception. IF the Gov't ever gets around to being serious about $1 coins circulating the $1 bills will have to go. There could easily be a rush to collect them in that case. Demand goes up; so would collectable value -- for CU notes. Report this Post to the Staff

GoldenChest Pillar of the Community United States 814 Posts	Posted 09/29/2013 2:38 pm I feel your pain, I recently had to spend part of my pre 95 collection on a vet bill for my pup. It sucks but sometimes you just got to do it. Report this Post to the Staff
The Bill Collector Valued Member United States 486 Posts	Posted 09/29/2013 8:37 pm Looks just like regular foldin money to me. Not even in holders, just layin there one on top of the other. Probably not a good way to keep a collection of any value. Do what you have to do, I'm sure you wont have any problem replacing it . Bill Collector Report this Post to the Staff
papermoney Valued Member United States 177 Posts	Posted 10/06/2013 10:16 am The $50s and $100s are premium-less, so spend em. Save some CU $10s and $20s, and just spend all the rest. Report this Post to the Staff
